1 My life begins for me today!
New worlds before me lie!
The yesterdays have passed away,
No more to cause a sigh.
Before me lies the bright today,
All blessings in its hold;
And I rejoice to find life's way
And sing its joys untold.

2 Today for me begins anew
A life that holds for me
All that is good and real and true,
It's blessings now I see.
I look no longer to the past,
Nor wait for future days;
For with today my lot is cast,
Its present joys I praise.
